{"value"=>"<p>The <em render=\"bold\">OTHER ORGANIZATIONS AND COMMITTEES series, 1963-1983 (1 linear ft.)</em>includes correspondence, minutes, articles, position papers, and printed material reflecting Haughton's activities outside his roles with the NALC, NAACP, and Fight Back. His participation in the anti-Vietnam War movement is documented in the folders of the Black United Action Front and the Vietnam Peace Parade Committee. He also joined several efforts by coalitions of movement groups, including the New American Movement, National Interim Committee, and Congress of Afrikan Peoples (headed by Amiri Baraka), to establish a third political party in the 1970s and 1980s. Material relating to these efforts may be found in the Third Political Parties sub-series for specific organizations such as the Citizen's Party, National Coordinating Committee for a 1976 Electoral Strategy, and the New York Working People's Party. There is also a miscellaneous folder which contains printed material from the New American Movement and minutes and background papers from a 1973 strategy meeting attended by Haughton, Barry Commoner, Bobby Rush, Lawrence Guyot, Arthur Kinoy, David Dellinger, and others. The Anti-Nuclear Movement folder contains notes of meetings which reflect Haughton's desire to link the fight against racism to anti-nuclear causes.</p>"}
